Grays Harbor Pride drew hundreds to the Shoppes at Riverside in Aberdeen on Saturday for vendor booths, games and entertainment for all ages.

Jen Gillies, president of Out & Proud Grays Harbor, led the charge to pull everything together in just a month and a half — from securing a new venue and funding, to vendor and volunteer recruitment.

“It was nothing short of a miracle,” said Ceasar Hart, who coordinated the event’s entertainment. “It was a beautiful day and evening, and I think it was pretty successful for 45 days.”
